It's not so much the variable argument list I need but the ability to pass 
parameters of 
undefined type.  I can fake the variable argument list with 10, 20, 100, 
parameters 
defined as *NOPASS.  The problem is all to do with having to specify a data 
type 
associated with the parameter.

Still, a bit of noise might get it noticed ....

Simon Coulter.
